Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi has been selected to serve as Vice Chair of the Congressional Equality Caucus, reinforcing his commitment to advancing the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community, an official news release stated.
In this leadership role, Congressman Krishnamoorthi will continue advocating for policies that promote equality, combat discrimination, and ensure that every American — regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity — can live freely and authentically.
“Despite the progress we have made, LGBTQ+ Americans continue to face significant barriers to full equality under the law and in their daily lives,” said Congressman Krishnamoorthi.
“As a Vice Chair of the Equality Caucus, I am committed to fighting for policies that protect fundamental rights and ensure that every person is treated with dignity and respect,” he added.
Throughout his time in Congress, Congressman Krishnamoorthi has been a staunch advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, co-sponsoring the Equality Act and supporting efforts to end workplace discrimination, protect transgender youth, and expand access to critical healthcare services.
His leadership has been instrumental in pushing back against efforts to roll back hard-won civil rights protections for the LGBTQ+ community.
